--------------------+---------------------
 When a package is too big for a provider to accept as an attachment,
 GetTor will reply with a list of three mirror sites that the user can try
 instead. However, GetTor does not help the user get the right package from
 one of these sites.

 If I request obfs-windows, GetTor should give me a few hints as to which
 package I should download from the site (i.e. the one starting with "tor-
 pluggable-transports" and ending in ".exe"), where I should download the
 package to, and what to do after that.

 An additional bonus would be if GetTor attached the short user manual
 (English by default, unless a translation exists).
